Chords with lyrics
Intro: C G7 F C G7 C
[Verse 1]
C G7
A long long time ago, there was a volcano.
F Csus2 G
Living all alone, in the middle of the sea.
C G7
He sat high above his bay, watching all the couples play,
F Csus2 G
and wishing that, he had someone too.
C G7 F
And from his lava came, this song of hope that he sang out-loud everyday,
Csus2 G
for years and years.
[Chorus]
F C
I have a dream, I hope will come true,
G7 C
that you're here with me and I?m here with you
F C
I wish that the earth, sea, the sky up above
F G7 C
will send me someone to la-va
[[Slows]] F G7 C
[Verse 2]
C G7
Years of singing all alone, turned his lava into stone,
F Csus2 G
until he was on the brink of extinction.
C G7
But little did he know that living in the sea below
F Csus2 G
another volcano was listening to his song.
[Verse 3]
C G7
Every day she heard his tune, her lava grew and grew
F Csus2 G
because she believed his song was meant for her.
C G7
Now she was so ready to meet him above the sea
F Csus2 G
as he sang his song of hope for the last time.
[Chorus] [[[[SLOWS]]]]
F C
I have a dream, I hope will come true,
G7 C
that you're here with me and I?m here with you
F C
I wish that the earth, sea, the sky up above
F G7 C
will send me someone to la-va
[Verse 4] [[PAUSE]] VOLCANO ERUPTS
(Feel free to throw in a short solo here)
C G7
Rising from the sea below stood a lovely volcano
F Csus2 G
looking all around but she could not see him.
C G7
He tried to sing to let her know that she was not there alone,
F Csus2 G
but with no lava his song was all gone.
C G7
He filled the sea with his tears and watched his dreams disappear
F Csus2 G
as she remembered what his song meant to her.
[Chorus]
F C
I have a dream, I hope will come true,
G7 C
that you're here with me and I?m here with you
F C
I wish that the earth, sea, the sky up above
F G7 C
will send me someone to la-va
[Verse 5] VOLCANO ERUPTS
C G7
And oh they were so happy to finally meet above the sea
F Csus2 G
All together now their lava grew and grew.
C G7
No longer are they alone with aloha as their new home
F Csus2 G
and when you visit them, this is what they sing
[Chorus]
F C
I have a dream, I hope will come true,
G7 C
that you?ll grow old with me, and I?ll grow old with you
F C
We thank the earth, sea, the sky, we thank too
C G7 C
